On the positive influence of Pd species on low-density polyethylene cracking
Pyra K., Tarach K., Majda D., Janiszewska E., Melián-Cabrera I., (Corresponding) Góra-Marek K.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Microporous 12-ring zeolite Beta was impregnated with palladium and evaluated in the cracking of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) cracking. In addition to the catalytic measurements the materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, chemical analysis and nitrogen adsorption, electron microscopy...Read more

Bottom-up synthesized hierarchical Beta zeolites as the catalysts for low-density polyethylene cracking
(Corresponding) Pyra K., Janiszewska E., Tarach K., Majda D., Góra-Marek K.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Improving mass transport in zeolites Beta by bottom-up hierarchization was aimed at preserving their native microporous acidic characteristic and finally demonstrating their applicability in LDPE catalytic pyrolysis, in contrast to top-down modified analogues.
Keywords:
hierarchical zeolites Beta, LDPE cracking, IR spectroscopy
Microbial Biodiversity of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) dumpsites of Cochin, Kerala, India.
Varier J., Kuttamassery N., (Corresponding) Chenichery S.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Cochin, the commercial and industrial centre of Kerala, lies on the south-west coast of Arabian sea. It covers an area of 94.88 Km2. There are two major dumpsites in the city, one at Brahmapuram and other at Kalamassery. The proper management of the waste has been a challenging task for the...Read more

Application of Risk Analysis to landfills: the experience of Brescia (Italy)
(Corresponding) Vaccari M., Gibellini S., Arnaboldi G.
Topic:
Solid waste management
In the Italian authorization procedure for the construction of a landfill, the Risk Analysis is mandatory in case of request for derogation from the current legislation (D.M. September 27, 2010), in order to demonstrate that there is no risk for the environment. This contribution describes the...Read more
Pyrolysis of Waste Plastic Laminates and Coconut Husk: Optimization of Fuel Oil Yield, Higher Heating Value and Energy Value
(Corresponding) Olalo J., Rollon A., Reyes J.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Operating parameters such as percentage composition, process temperature, and particle size affects the outcome of the co-pyrolysis of coconut husk and plastic laminates. Highest yield of 31.17% occurred at 600oC, 5cm particle size and 32% of coconut husk. The corresponding energy value was 1.89688...Read more
Co-Pyrolysis of Plastic Wastes: Effects of Temperature and Feedstock Ratio on Chemical Composition of Liquid Product
(Corresponding) Özçakır G., Karaduman A.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Co-Pyrolysis of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Polystyrene (PS) was carried out in a semi-batch glass reactor system. Effects of temperature and feedstock ratio on pyrolytic product yields (gaseous, liquid and solid residue) and chemical composition of the liquid were investigated. All...Read more

Development of Porous Carbon Nanomaterials from Petroleum Waste for CO2 Capture and Mineralization
(Corresponding) Jalilov A., Albaiz A., Alsaidan M.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Herein we report on developing mineral
carbonization technology using porous carbons from
vacuum residue to generate products that are best
suited economically for CO2 sequestration.
Activating of vacuum residue using activation
reagent as Ca(OH)2 and MgO mixed with KOH gives
a porous...Read more

Contribution to the exploitation of oil by-products for use in the production of quality feed through the fermentation with the fungal strain LGAM P123 of basidiomyces Pleurotus ostreatus
(Corresponding) KARALIS I., ΑRAPOGLOY D., CHORIANOPOYLOS N., ILIOPOYLOS C.
Topic:
Solid waste management
In Greece, large quantities of by-products are produced annually from urban and industrial activities among them very high olive oil productionby-products. Thus, the interest of the scientific community has focused on the utilization of olive oil waste mainly as a feed using various microorganisms...Read more

Topic:
Solid waste management
The problem on solid waste has been and still remains as a major problem in the Philippines especially in developing countries where proper facilities for collection and disposal are not always available. In Metro Manila alone, daily waste generation stands at 8,600 tons coming from a population 12...Read more
The possibility of recycling of multilayer packaging waste: Reducing Environmental impacts
(Corresponding) Mumladze T., ŠLEINIŪTĖ A., Denafas G.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Multilayer Packaging Waste (MPW) represents the largest fraction of packaging waste and is mainly composed of multiple plastic films laminated with Al foil. Most produced multilayer film is based on the different polymers, such as: polyester (PET), polypropylene (PP), and polyethylene (PE) as main...Read more
